It has been a while that I have posted anything new. This lockdown has left me with so many thoughts. I know it's not only me, but everyone and my works did get slowed down. Added to this was our transfer and shifting to a new house and new environment. Just getting comfortable with the new surroundings.
Colourful sarees and fabrics are good enough on their own. But artists can find canvas everywhere.
So I am sharing two colourful sarees I have done long back. These are beautiful sarees with one colour in the body and contrasting colour in the pallu. They look very nice as they are but looking through my artistic eyes I felt to do some painting in them.
I feel still they are beautiful.

Warli designs or tribal paintings are very easily done in any material. The warli motifs can be done in full black or can be made completely colourful.
Usually hand painting in Kerala sarees are done with traditional designs but here I have chosen warli painting designs. This is something that a beginner can try for a start in fabric painting.
Today I am going to show small and simple design.
Sometimes it happens that we like a saree which is of very good fabric but is plain bordered. Over a period of time we get bored of the simple border and we wish to have some colourful thing on it.
For such plain wears we can do simple small and cute designs and make it look new.
Now here are two such sarees with designs somewhat similar.
